While you make six figures, most of us try to figure out a way to pay for a six dollar meal. Skyhigh is a need and necessary commodity in this forum, and while I dont always agree with his viewpoint, I do agree with his message. He is not a flamebaiter because I dont think he really gives a s### about what any of us think, he is offering an opinion about what he thinks the industry is about, and to tell you the truth I dont think most of us regional drivers could realistically disagree, by the way isnt that what APC is all about? Skyhigh you paint a bleek picture at times, but from me at least "Big Ups" I refrain from the kool aid.
Yes I do paint a bleak picture at times but who 10 years ago could have predicted the current state of the industry? Who could have guessed that there would be 225 hour regional airline pilots flying RJ's as their first assignment? The idea would have been considered preposterous. Lets all hope that my estimations of the future are off.

Thank you for your support. I believe in everything that I write.
